Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Thursday, June 10, 2010

Do not judge, that you may not be judged. For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged.
- Matthew 7:1-2

Reflection: The real Church is being born today in the faithfulness and boldness of the Spirit, in the unity of Christ's Body. We do not ask you to praise her a priori, but to give these positive facts the place they deserve. Like the Lord, we say to you. Come and see.
- Pope Paul VI

Prayer: O Lord, let me never prejudge actions of the Church that might seem questionable. Let me find love in her and lover her into healing.
